A TRULY WISE WOMAN.
How Minneapolis Housekeeper Manag
to Keep Her Servants,

HOW a. MinheapOlis Housekeeper Manages
to Keep Her Servants.
She pays them literally and prompt
ly, recognizing the fact, true the world
over, that the employer who beats down
wages always suffers from the inferior
quality of work done, and from lack OF
interest on the part of the employed.
Having practical knowledge of the
business of housekeeping, she can not
be deceived, and knows how to direct
the work properly; and, while insisting
kindly, but firmly, that it shall be prop
erly performed, she never fails to give I,
word of praise for all that merits her
approval. She never NEEDLES with her
servants particular ways of doing work
so long as good results are produced.
She doesn't think it necessary to sub
stitute her way for every body else's
way.
She never lowers herself by scolding.
Her servants are respectful to her be-
cause she is respectful to them. No
familiarity is tolerated or attempted.
The private domestic life of the family
is never intruded upon. They have their
own apartments, eat by themselves and
prefer to do so. And yet the mis-
tress is not unmindful of their physical
and mental well-being. She has fitted
up comfortable bedroom, with good
spring bed and toilet necessities, and
adjoining, a coy little sitting-room.
with stove, table, rocking chairs, etc.,
where they can rest as women need to.
And several times a week they are in
vited to the family sitting-room for
half an hour in the evening, where she
teaches them to read English, they
being Scandinavians.
She realizes that. as human beings,
they have desires for social companion
ship, and allows them to have rea-
sonablc amount of company She
allows them as many church privileges
as possible, and gives them a street-car
fare once or twice week. She takes
a kindly personal interest in them,
helping them to select their clothing
and get it made neatly.
100 much trouble to take for serv-
ants" is it? Well, perhaps it is; and
yet she contrives to do it in the inter-
walls of busy life. She says that it
ism a quarter the trouble that it would
be to change servants every six weeks
Those girls love her. and look up to
her, and work faithfully for her, and

THE LsseL RIFLE.
Descriptive Account of the New Arm Of the
French Arnny.se

Descrfpuve Account OF the New Arm of the
French Army.
The Lebel rife, as the new arm is
called, was invented by Lieutenant
Colonel Lcbel, principal Of the artillery
school at Chalons. It's remarkable
qualities are lightncss, long range and
extraordinary penetrating power. Ac-
cordihg TO the scientific researches Of
the mathematician. Prof. HELLER, Il
was supposed that the absolutely per-
feet army rifle should be weapon
with caliber Of precisely seven MILL
meters. The Lebel rifle has not 20
small n calibcr, but offers the nearest
approach to it yet madc--viz.: Eight
millimeters With this caliber the adj
vantages are: a lighter cartridge; a
greater penetrating power. and a much
less liability of the missile to be devil
ated from its course by strong wind
The ball is so covered with steel and
brass, ms to enable it to preserve its
form and to follow precisely the
grooves Of the barrel. Its initial We
locity is exactly 100 meters per second
greater than that Of the Gras rifle,
which had an initial velocity of 450
meters, while the Lebcl boasts We
locity of $40 meters. 1t revolves upon
itself 5000 times per second always
travelling point first. At distance Of
1880 meters its fire is as fatal as within
a lesser distance; and as the line of the
projectilc is almost perfectly straight,
extraordinary hits can be made
at immense ranges. To obviate the
shock of recoil consequent upon SO
prodigious an expelling force, special
powder has been invented by Colonel
Brugerc, which detonates progressively
without smoke and with comparatively
little noise. The shooter feels the
weapon push-does not feel a sudden
and painful jar. Three wooden shields
placed at about twenty-five yards apart
were easily pierced in straight line by
one ritleshot-the ball travelling on five
hundred meters furtherwithout chang
ing its course to strike the outlying
target aimed at precisely in the center.
The movable breech piece is shorter
than in the Gras rifle, but offers a
greater resistance and the recoil fol-
lows the axis of the weapon.
On finding themselves in possession
of SO extraordinary an arm, it was for
some time question with the military
authorities whether or not to adopt it
in its simplest form. as the best of
single-shot breech leaders. But as
Austria is adopting the Mannlicher re-
peater, Italy the Vital repeater, Ger
many the Mauser magazine gun, it
seemed necessary to make the Lebel
a repeater also; as troops armed with a
single shot rifle only, however good,
would easily become demoralizcd by
the mere conviction that they were
face to face with enemies armed with
magazine guns.-Engiish Paper.

Contagion OF Anthrax.

Amin ais dying of anthrax-splenic
fever-are liable to communicate the
disease to men who handle their car
cases, even though it be for immediate
burial. The privy council of Great
Britain have, therefore, sent notice to
local authorities throughout the king
dom, and caused it to be widely pub
lished, that this danger exists, and'that
such carcasses should not be skinned,
but covered with quicklime and buried
at least six feet deep. Persons who
have any abrasons of the skin upon
their hands or arms should not
touch them or any part of them.
The blood, stable litter, fodder, ma
nurc, etc, should be carefully removed
and burned, and the stalls, of course,
thoroughly disinfected. = american

a Merchant who cowhided his Son.


In 1924 an old merchant in New York CITY
started his son, who was inclined to be some
what dissipated, in business When he set
him up he said to him: Now, my son, | have
given you ample capital Ii you are steady
and take care of it and yourself, you will do
well and make large fortune. Keep out of
bad company--avoid gambling l viii in
dorse all your business notes for purchases.
If you do not do as wish, you will incur my
serious displcasure" Years rolled on, ANA
the son seemed to be doing well, when one
morning well known backlog called on the
old gentleman and presented him with e
check on tho Bank Of North America for
81 900. q have been to the bank. said the
gambler, "and they refuse to pay it. Is that
your signature" The son had lost that
amount at the faro table the night before.
1t flashed across the old merchants mind
that something must be wrong, and he OBJ
served'to the gambler: "Give me that check
and win give you another" He did So and
the gambler went away satisfied.
As soon as he was gone the old gentleman
started for the store of his son. All seemed
sunshine there. He spoke to his sor: II want
to see you up stairs" They went clear up to
the garnet, out of hearing. Then the exas-
peratc1 father drew out of his pocket the
check. He put it under the eye of his son.
"What does it meanP Tho son was as
founded. He tried to shuttle it off-to explain
it away. 1t was of no use "You shall no
longer bring disgrace upon me. viii put a
stopper on such goings on" On his way
down to his sons store he had bought heavy
rawhide at saddler's shop He took his son
by the collar and gave him most terrific
cowhiding. When he had finished he said:
snow wind up your business as quickly as
possible" The son left the business never to
return to 1t again, and was never after re-
garded as Of any account by his father or
any one else.-Dry Goods Chronicle.
